Underdogs $5 put cashout bbb101 Jun 20, 10:54

The movie is not being released, therefore all related securities delist at 0. {nm} JDolphin Jun 20, 11:42

Please read the HSX FAQS located at the bottom of the page (last entry) {nm} RazorHawk Jun 20, 11:50

I acknowledge the bylaw, but the logic of it is questionable... <nm> bbb101 Jun 20, 19:38

You are making it harder than it has to be.... RazorHawk Jun 20, 20:12

You are such a brilliant trader RH. I just wish you were nicer to people. You could really make a difference beyond what you've already... Willroast Jun 20, 20:19

just for a better understanding, what is not nice about his post? also, is saying he has a social disorder nice? {nm} islander Jun 21, 06:00

No that was not nice on my part. Jerky, in fact. I'm sorry. My post was meant to be under the previous post which I misread. {nm} Willroast Jun 21, 13:08

My issue it this: bbb101 Jun 21, 10:32

In this case their is clearly a written rule to cover this situation. So the lesson learned is read all the rules or ask next time. {nm} JDolphin Jun 21, 11:26

Agreed! It's paltry H$, I just hold the rule wasn't well thought out, that's all (nm) bbb101 Jun 21, 11:41

That's been true for a lot of things in HSX over the years, youve just got to live with it and move on to the next conundrum {nm} JDolphin Jun 21, 12:02

You're confusing [movie BO _effect_ on PUT price] with [HSX PUT security price]. They are NOT the same. (nm) Patient Player Jun 22, 11:22

Correction: You're confusing an HSX rule about released movies with an HSX rule about non-released movies. (nm) Patient Player Jun 22, 11:30

Question for KaiGee (or anyone else who can assist)... Qix Jun 18, 17:30

You can get lists of all secruties from KaiGee's site, or movies and bonds from HowProfitable, or movies you don't own with the Port Monkey JDolphin Jun 18, 20:18

My "movies you don't own" script doesn't work. Is yours working? {nm} Rocket123 aka PVL Admin Jun 19, 09:16

It's been broken in Firefox for a while. Does work in Chrome. Don't know why. {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! Jun 19, 16:01

I've never actually counted all the active securites but I'm someone on here has :) {nm} JDolphin Jun 18, 20:30

Cheers, could be wrong but I think KaiGee maintains a running total. {nm} Qix Jun 18, 20:56

As of today, there are 1286 active moviestocks + 1423 active starbonds. {nm} Roger More Jun 19, 08:00

And 55 funds and derivatives = 2764 so your math is correct {nm} Roger More Jun 19, 08:06

Thanks Roger. {nm} Qix Jun 19, 13:31

I concur that your numbers are correct. Full breakdown inside... KaiGee Jun 19, 09:26

Cheers KaiGee, much appreciated. {nm} Qix Jun 19, 13:31

Cool. I was curious how much $$$ I'd have to own positions in everything. Thanks. {nm} Baron_Darcon Jun 19, 14:43

Top Movie Funds for the Week Rocket123 aka PVL Admin Jun 18, 10:31

my fund is sexy {nm} AFRAM The African American Fund Jun 18, 10:49

mighty sexy. DROI 2.86% for June so far. Thanks for the free fake dollar dollar bills. {nm} Wrath_crfd Jun 18, 23:10

Is there still a free trading day? been a long while {nm} AlexanderC Jun 18, 10:04

no, not for a while now {nm} islander Jun 18, 10:28

aww.. right on, thanks {nm} AlexanderC Jun 18, 10:32

The down under fund should have been invested in Finding Dory since it takes place in the great barrier reef. {nm} Baron_Darcon Jun 18, 01:09

Isn't the greater crime that the Strong Female Lead Fund isn't participating in Finding Dory? {nm} RazorHawk Jun 18, 07:21

aka The Flat-Line Fund. {nm} Captain Obvious Jun 18, 07:37

Us Aussies do a pretty dredgeful job when it comes to the Great Barrier Reef {nm} Wrath_crfd Jun 18, 22:56

The LGBT Fund RazorHawk Jun 16, 12:41

That's only 4 StarBonds. {nm} Antibody Jun 16, 14:41

Well he gave 4 then used ... to imply more. (Like Jane lynch, Jim parsons... {nm} islander Jun 16, 14:49

Yes, I want to see if there are enough for a viable fund. {nm} Antibody Jun 16, 16:38

I just gave four examples... 1 lesbian, 1 gay, 1 bisexual, 1 transgender... with "..." to imply more... here is a partial list... RazorHawk Jun 16, 17:04

Drew Barrymore? I don't think bisexuals like AHEAR should count. {nm} Antibody Jun 16, 17:12

meaning I don't think many of them self-identify with LGBT. {nm} Antibody Jun 16, 17:15

The 'B' stands for bisexual. {nm} hyperzeitgeist Jun 16, 17:26

if they state they are bi or have had a public same sex relationship, i think thats self-identification {nm} Moviesnob Jun 16, 17:27

Ok, I can agree with a public same sex relationship, but probably not saying they're bi because they've had flings while married to men.. {nm} Antibody Jun 16, 18:03

Drew Barrymore and Amber Heard RazorHawk Jun 16, 17:29

I don't recall any of DBARR's relationship with women, same with DMOOR. {nm} Antibody Jun 16, 17:45

2003 Barrymore admitted she is bisexual BigDaddy Jun 16, 17:49

Who are the women she spoke of. {nm} Antibody Jun 16, 17:53

Meant for Bigdaddy. {nm} Antibody Jun 16, 17:55

She came out as bi in an interview. She's never talked in public about who's she's dated or such. BigDaddy Jun 16, 18:07

Some people experiment at that age, doesn't make them bisexual. Antibody Jun 17, 08:35

she was rumored to have a relationship with Ellen Page in 2009 while filming Whip It RazorHawk Jun 17, 09:34

FWIW Drew Barrymore is currently in the process of divorcing her husband RazorHawk Jun 17, 09:53

Saying these things isn't really consider experimenting. BigDaddy Jun 17, 11:45

It's a great idea, surprising it's never happened, and I'd invest. {nm} seastrt Jun 22, 07:37

CLOSET fund would be more viable. {nm} hyperzeitgeist Jun 16, 14:53

+1. Although Verification might be a bit Tricky. {nm} Captain Obvious Jun 16, 17:02

Rupert Everett, Matt Bomer {nm} JDolphin Jun 16, 15:10

Bryan Singer, Rob Marshall, Lee Daniels, Tyler Perry, Todd Haynes, Gus Van Sant {nm} Moviesnob Jun 16, 15:42

Zachary Quinto. Ian McKellen. {nm} Antibody Jun 16, 16:45

Jodie Foster, Ellen Page {nm} RogerMore Jun 16, 17:38

Alan Cumming, Michelle Rodriguez {nm} RogerMore Jun 16, 17:42

There has never been a gay themed fund in the games history. BigDaddy Jun 16, 16:35

It seems to me that most (not all) of these movies in this fund would have "limited" openings, no?? {nm} Flash Jun 17, 07:59

Finding Dory; Independence Day 2; Ghostbusters; Ice Age 5; Suicide Squad; The Magnificent Seven; The Girl On The Train... RazorHawk Jun 17, 08:31

Well, I don't know every actor in every movie, but the ones he pointed out seemed to mostly be limited... {nm} Flash Jun 17, 08:40

...invests in openly LGBT starbonds [and] the movies that they are attached to... ...as well as movies with a LGBT theme... RazorHawk Jun 17, 09:22

Don't Forget about TRANSGender included? {nm} mike255 Jun 17, 10:01

mike225 reminds me of that kid at the beginning of Antman who wants to buy a hotdogs from Baskin-Robbins {nm} RazorHawk Jun 17, 11:59

Fund is NOT fully comitted to Iday2 SCIFund Jun 16, 12:18

I am. {nm} FOXX Fund Jun 16, 18:14

Good call. {nm} hyperzeitgeist Jun 17, 00:38

when will undrd.ow 88dho Jun 16, 09:01

Monday. The movie never came out theatrically. {nm} Antibody Jun 16, 10:51

I'm not understanding why an IPO will go up or down the day after shadomoon Jun 15, 08:21

What I don't understand is why when 90% of shares of an IPO held short, the stock still goes UP. {nm} drakkar Jun 15, 09:04

Because only trades made the same day count towards price movement. {nm} RogerMore Jun 15, 10:16

Everyone says "Short $2 IPOs" but frequently they don't actually go down, only the reset traders make money playing the players drakkar Jun 16, 09:44

Examples inside MattW Jun 15, 21:34

No, because in addition to the factors you list there are players taking a quick profit and cashing out (more inside) DTravel Jun 15, 12:50

KaiGee Missing Movie Info for Adjust List ChifferBrane Jun 14, 13:50

Something broke last night, I'm in the process of trying to fix it. {nm} KaiGee Jun 14, 19:36

StarBonds and TAG RexKramer1 Jun 14, 12:44

total gross...the grosses on delisted Moviestock pages actually keep getting updated weekly...Mondays I think {nm} tealfan Jun 14, 12:58

Thanks... RexKramer1 Jun 14, 13:03

Sometimes it can be quite a bit more - American Hustle and Big Hero 6 added 50 mil more box office after delist 2 yrs ago {nm} JDolphin Jun 14, 13:16

Now that I'm aware of it, I can see that. Some very big swings. {nm} RexKramer1 Jun 14, 13:40

But remember, there is a cap of 250 million gross that can be used for any movie toward a star bond tag {nm} JDolphin Jun 14, 13:23

Curious... is there a count on the # of actual seats available in theaters now? 3 of my local theater went deluxe and lost 75% of the seats Baron_Darcon Jun 14, 02:12

Theaters aren't stupid. They raised the price accordingly. {nm} Antibody Jun 14, 10:07

The #1 Movie Prediction Contest is open! (info and link inside - entries due by midnight PST on June 30) RogerMore Jun 13, 11:52

For transparency, here are my picks: RogerMore Jun 13, 11:54

cool...thx for doing this!. {nm} tealfan Jun 13, 12:04

Done {nm} RazorHawk Jun 13, 12:19

Very cool. I'm in. {nm} MattW Jun 13, 12:54

One suggestion??? Flash Jun 13, 12:55

(Obviously if a movie is listed the 2nd time, it's NOT opening THAT weekend) {nm} Flash Jun 13, 12:58

Movies opening that weekend are at the top of the list for each week. And if it has already opened, you've seen it on the previous question {nm} RogerMore Jun 13, 13:06

I used HSX's "Release Schedule" under "News & Events" in the green navigation bar {nm} RazorHawk Jun 13, 13:13

OK, thanks...much appreciated. {nm} Flash Jun 13, 13:16

Entered thanks! Not a big point but noticed that the tag for Rogue One is listed as SW18 not 16 :) {nm} Ken85 Jun 13, 13:09

Oh, right. This is now fixed. {nm} RogerMore Jun 13, 13:31

That's what I call customer service! ;) {nm} Ken85 Jun 13, 14:38

Looks like fun! Thanks for putting this together RM. {nm} Willroast Jun 13, 17:31

Oooh, good stuff! Thanks RM! {nm} slappydavid Jun 13, 20:00

@randy666 - I have two entries from you. Which do you want counted - the earliest or the latest? {nm} RogerMore Jun 14, 06:49

Sorry about that its the lastest one {nm} Randy666 Jun 14, 22:22

hehe...tricksy hobbitses {nm} tealfan Jun 15, 09:05

latest one lol { nm} {nm} Randy666 Jun 14, 22:24

Thanks, done {nm} RogerMore Jun 15, 07:07

I'm in. Thanks Roger {nm} ufmike Jun 14, 20:19

How can i edit mine? just sent it. Thanks! {nm} Filmstardust Jun 16, 12:38

Did you keep a copy of the link that appeared when you completed the survey? If not, you'll have to re-submit and I will delete the earlier RogerMore Jun 16, 14:08

No, i didn't keep a copy of that link. I will do that now. Sorry for the inconvenience. Can you delete my entry, so i can do it again? THX! {nm} Filmstardust Jun 16, 14:29

Dang, this is hard when you don't know how good the movie will be... TwoMisfits Jun 23, 08:23

I submit it again, so you can delete the previous one, thanks! {nm} Filmstardust Jun 23, 08:56

Remake Fund, I have resent you an invitation for the HSX Fund Manager League... I hope it works now. {nm} AFRAM The African American Fund Jun 12, 05:28

Looking to join or maybe start a league after a long time away Raindog Jun 11, 06:35

Welcome back! You can browse leagues by size. Many of the bigger ones are welcoming {nm} Wrath_crfd Jun 11, 08:46

Is there a way to sort the funds by who manages them? Christguy Jun 09, 10:41

Perhaps in a member's profile? Christguy Jun 09, 11:29

Fund managers are usually listed on the individual fund page. The new fund manager's league page would be the closest to an actual list RogerMore Jun 09, 11:33

Are there any traders that manage more than one fund? {nm} Wrath_crfd Jun 10, 04:59

No, you are only allowed to manage one fund at a time. {nm} Antibody Jun 10, 09:26

See inside Youngfund Jun 09, 19:39

Well, that hasn't been updated in a while because I haven't been fund manger for UNIVX for about a month, and it has been trading recently {nm} FranklynStreet Jun 10, 00:56

In what situation would you only buy/short only 1 or 10 of a stock? {nm} shadomoon Jun 08, 09:06

funds often hold 1 (or at least this fund does) of everything I can own within scope of fund {nm} LatinoFund Jun 08, 09:16

I buy a radar (1 share) of many stocks..some IPO's that I may want to watch, or others I'm not sure about but want to watch... {nm} Flash Jun 08, 10:14

I do this all the time too. Also 1 share of bonds to track upcoming adjusts when they aren't worth buying {nm} JDolphin Jun 08, 13:37

All the time, to provide more visibility. {nm} goodvibe61 Jun 14, 11:20

Pee Wee? MstrChapl Jun 06, 12:20

People unloading their shorts to free up cash? {nm} DTravel Jun 06, 13:00

LOL... Pee Wee. = People unloading their shorts" {nm} RazorHawk Jun 08, 12:57

Would a limited release ever move to a wide one? {nm} shadomoon Jun 06, 10:43

Yes, this happens fairly often. LVNFR, for example, expanded into a wide release last weekend and adjusted on Sunday, RogerMore Jun 06, 11:13

The all time champion is MBFGW which delisted, then went wide, and grossed >241M {nm} mrbinns Jun 06, 21:55

'American Sniper' (AMSNP) Opened Limited Release in Four (4) Theatres, Wide Expansion, 350 MILL Gross. Captain Obvious Jun 07, 00:37

I think the point is that MBFGW actually delisted before it had a chance to make any of us any of that cheddah! {nm} Willroast Jun 07, 01:51

Sniper was always going to be wide. it had a 58 mil budget. {nm} JDolphin Jun 07, 11:56

yup, its initial run was to qualify for the oscars {nm} Moviesnob Jun 07, 14:33

Congratulations to the May 2016 PVL Winners (results inside - finally) Rocket123 aka PVL Admin Jun 05, 12:57

Congrats to the winners! Thanks Rocket! Wrath_crfd Jun 05, 23:22
